Scope and Contents

Contents

The extra-cardiac work-up in infective endocarditis (IE) comprises a search for primary and secondary infective foci. Whether
18
FDG-PET/CT or WBC-SPECT/CT is superior in detection of clinically relevant extra-cardiac manifestations in IE is unexplored. The objectives of this study were to identify the numbers of positive findings detected by...
